Functions
PSS WIN-PRO Service Version: Getting Started
1. Connect computer
Connect your computer to the PSS (see also “Connect computer to
PSS”).
2. Open project or PSS program
You can view the PSS program and then start to display variables, or
you can open the project that contains the identical program to that of
the PSS and then start the function. The benefit of the latter is that you
can switch between several variable tables (see step 8, “Switch varia-
ble table”).
Open a project (
Project -> Open
) or select
PSS -> Open PSS Pro-
gram
.
3. Set the mode
Switch to FS mode or ST mode, depending on which variables you
wish to display.
4. Open variable table
In the Project Manager, double-click on the variable table that you wish
to use to display and control/force.
5. Edit variable table
Enter in the variable table all the operands/addresses that you wish to
display.
6. Start variable display
Select
PSS -> Variable Table -> Start Variable Display
.
The actual values of the operands in the variable table are displayed.
The display is updated at each cycle change.
7. Edit variable table
As soon as you make a change to a variable table, the display for that
variable table will be stopped.
Make the changes and then restart variable display.
8. Stop variable display
If you wish to “freeze” variable display at a particular point or if you
wish to stop the variable display, select
PSS -> Variable Table ->
Stop Variable Display
or close the variable table.
